Whole-Wheat Pasta with Brown-Buttered Mushrooms, Buckwheat, and Egg Yolk

Name: Tomato Pasta with Eggplant and Sausage (on the side)
Yield: Serves 4
Ingredients: 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more; 1 pound sausage of your choosing; 1 pound eggplant, fennel or zucchini, chopped; 1 red or yellow onion, sliced (not too thin); Kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper; 1 24-ounce jar tomato sauce, puree, or can of crushed tomatoes; Fresh or dried oregano, optional; Crushed red pepper flakes, optional; 2 cloves garlic, very, very well crushed or finely chopped; 1 pound dried pasta such as casarecce or rigatoni; Basil, if you have it; Pecorino or Parmesan cheese, for grating

Do you know how many mushroom varieties there are? About four million. Even if that’s not true (it’s not), I feel like I’m always discovering a new type that makes me glad it’s socially acceptable to eat fungus.

When I’m blessed with an abundance of tomatoes in the summer, I like to make this sauce and freeze it so that I can eat this pasta in the coldest months, when I want it the most.

Clam Pasta with Chorizo and Walnuts

Even at the most suspect red-sauce Italian restaurant, I’ll always order the linguine alle vongole, because like pizza, even at its worst, linguine with clams is still pretty great.

Sour Cream Flatbread

There’s no kneading involved (just mixing), and the only tools you need are a bowl, a spoon, and your hands.
